Water Manifold Needed

Hello all,

It seems to be a rough start to the season for my bus "Nellie"!! Although I have multiple issues going on I though it would be best to separate the topics.  Any and all information, and fingers crossed that the issues stop, will be greatly appreciated.

The first issue is likely a self-induced issue of not getting the coach winterized in time. I have a crack on the back of my water manifold and I have not been able to find a part number for it.  I figured I would start here before calling Foretravel.

Try searching for a "12 port manabloc", lots of them out there.

I have what appears to be the same manabloc.  Based on info here, I contacted the manufacturer, Viega.  They made a new one that is arriving tomorrow according to UPS.  IIRC, it was $180.

Do you have a part #? I just called and they could/ would not cross reference the part.

The new Manabloc arrived and I opened it and then tried to compare with the original which is still installed.  It does appear to be a "plug and play" replacement.  One pic shows the numbers from the packing list.  If you need more info, just PM me.  Hopefully this helps.

Thank you for posting this information.  I just found a leak in my manifold this afternoon. Will be calling Foretravel in the morning.

FWIW, if you are replying to my post, I got the manifold directly from Viega.

When my ManaBloc cracked, I replaced it with an all copper one.  I had to build a new frame for it but the result is something that won't crack.

Price may be more than equivalent ManaBloc now to get two sections but was comparable when I got it about 3 years ago.
